The sponsor of this challenge is :

Lee Holland Illustrations

My name is Lee Holland and I am a freelance illustrator who loves to design and draw cute characters. I've worked in many industries over the years including greeting cards, card making, cross stitch and books to name a few. I love nature and going for walks with my family which provides a lot of inspiration for my work. I decided to open an etsy shop to sell my designs as Digi stamps for crafters to use in their crafting projects. I hope people enjoy using my images as much as I do drawing them :)






This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Embossing Technique (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.


Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:




When I first started stamping I dabbled with embossing powders, but I really like the quick and easy textured effect you can get with embossing folders.

Using : Baby Giraffe

My favourite embossing, I just love how lines
of embossing on a board look crisp and clean.


Carol

Love embossing folders, love the texture and depth they give to your card and there is so many lovely folders out there to be had!






Mojca
I love my embossing folders, the texture gives the card such powerful effect.




Sarah


For texture you can't beat a good old embossing folder. 
It adds a certain something to a CAS card. 
Using : Girl with Flower


Suzette






Wilma
It's more work, but I love the extra dimension that you get with embossing powder and a heat tool. 
Using: Baby Giraffe





So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite Embossing Technique (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
